Luka 5
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe Jesũ arũngiĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria rĩa Genesareti, nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ aingĩ nĩkĩahatĩkanaga kĩmũkuhĩrĩrie nĩguo gĩthikĩrĩrie ũhoro wa Ngai,
And when the people were pressing on Him to hear the word of God, as He stood by the lake of Gennesareth, seeing two vessels at the edge of the lake,
2 nake akĩona tũtarũ twĩrĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria rĩu, tũtigĩtwo ho nĩ ategi a thamaki, arĩa maathambagia neti ciao cia gũtega.
(but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets: )
3 Agĩtoonya gatarũ kamwe, nako kaarĩ ga Simoni, akĩmũthaitha agatoonyatoonyie maaĩ-inĩ, kehere hũgũrũrũ-inĩ. Agĩcooka agĩikara thĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũruta andũ ũhoro arĩ gatarũ-inĩ kau.
He went into one of them, which was Simon's, and desired him to put off a little way from the shore: and He sat down and taught the multitudes from the ship.
4 Na aarĩkia kwaria, akĩĩra Simoni atĩrĩ, “Twara gatarũ haarĩa hariku, mũikũrũkie neti maaĩ-inĩ, mũtege thamaki.”
And when He had done speaking, He said to Simon, Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
5 Nake Simoni akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwathi witũ, tũrutĩte wĩra mũritũ ũtukũ wothe, na tũtinanyiita kĩndũ o na kĩ. No tondũ nĩwoiga ũguo-rĩ, nĩngũikũrũkia neti.”
And Simon answered and said unto Him, Master, we have been toiling all the night, and have caught nothing; however at thy word I will cast the net.
6 Maarĩkia gwĩka ũguo, makĩnyiita thamaki nyingĩ mũno, nginya neti ciao ikĩambĩrĩria gũtuĩka.
And when they had done this, they inclosed a multitude of fishes; and their net was breaking.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩheneria arĩa maarutithanagia wĩra nao, arĩa maarĩ gatarũ kau kangĩ moke mamateithie, nao magĩũka makĩiyũria tũtarũ twerĩ ki, o nginya tũkĩambĩrĩria gũtoonyerera maaĩ-inĩ.
And they beckoned to their partners that were in the other ship, to come and help them; and they came, and filled both the ships, so that they were even sinking: and when Simon Peter saw it,
8 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Simoni Petero onire ũguo, akĩĩgũithia maru-inĩ ma Jesũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Njeherera Mwathani; niĩ ndĩ mũndũ mwĩhia!”
he fell at the knees of Jesus, saying, Lord, depart from me, for I am a sinful man;
9 Nĩgũkorwo we na arĩa othe maarĩ nao nĩmagegire mũno nĩ ũndũ wa thamaki iria maanyiitĩte,
for he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had taken;
10 o na Jakubu na Johana, ariũ a Zebedi, arĩa maarutithanagia wĩra na Simoni nĩmagegire. Nake Jesũ akĩĩra Simoni atĩrĩ, “Tiga gwĩtigĩra; kuuma rĩu ũrĩtegaga andũ.”
as were also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Be not afraid, from henceforth thou shalt be a captor of men.
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makiumĩria tũtarũ twao hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria, magĩtiga indo ciao ciothe, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And when they had brought their ships to land, they left all and followed Him.
12 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩmwe rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe-rĩ, nĩguokire mũndũ waiyũrĩtwo nĩ mangũ mwĩrĩ wothe. Na rĩrĩa onire Jesũ, akĩĩgũithia, agĩturumithia ũthiũ wake thĩ, akĩmũthaitha, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ũngĩenda-rĩ, no ũũtherie.”
And when He was in one of the cities of that country, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus, fell prostrate to Him, and besought Him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.
13 Jesũ agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake, akĩhutia mũndũ ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩngwenda. Therio!” Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩhonio mangũ.
And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed: and immediately the leprosy departed from him.
14 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmũkaania, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkeere mũndũ o na ũ, no thiĩ, ũkeyonanie kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na ũrute magongona marĩa Musa aathanire nĩ ũndũ wa gũtherio gwaku, arĩ ũira kũrĩ o.”
And He charged him to tell no one: but go, said He, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
15 Na rĩrĩ, ngumo yake ĩgĩkĩrĩrĩria kũhunja makĩria, o nginya kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ ma kĩa andũ gĩgĩũka kũmũthikĩrĩria na kũhonio mĩrimũ yao.
But the fame of Him spread more and more, and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities.
16 No Jesũ nĩeheragĩra andũ, agathiĩ kũndũ gũtarĩ andũ kũhoera Ngai kuo.
But He frequently retired into solitary places, and prayed.
17 Mũthenya ũmwe nĩ kũrutana aarutanaga, nao Afarisai na arutani a watho arĩa mookĩte kuuma matũũra mothe ma Galili, na Judea, na Jerusalemu, maikarĩte thĩ hau. Naguo hinya wa Ngai wa kũhonania warĩ hamwe na Jesũ.
And one day, as He was teaching, there were pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judea, and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was present to heal the people:
18 Na rĩrĩ, nĩhookire andũ makuuĩte mũndũ na kĩbarĩ, warũarĩte mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, nao makĩgeria kũmũtoonyia nyũmba mamũige harĩ Jesũ.
and behold, some men bringing on a couch a man that was paralytic; and they endeavoured to bring him in, and lay him before Him:
19 Na rĩrĩa maagire njĩra ya gwĩka ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa ũingĩ wa andũ, makĩhaica nyũmba-igũrũ magĩtharia maturubarĩ, makĩmũikũrũkĩria mwanya-inĩ ũcio o arĩ kĩbarĩ-inĩ, nginya gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ acio makĩmũiga o hau Jesũ aarĩ.
but when they could not find what way to bring him in because of the croud, they went up on the battlements of the house, and let him down from the roof with his couch, into the midst before Jesus,
20 Rĩrĩa Jesũ onire wĩtĩkio wao, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrata, nĩwarekerwo mehia maku.”
who seeing their faith said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 Nao Afarisai na arutani a watho makĩambĩrĩria gwĩciiria ngoro-inĩ ciao, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũndũ ũyũ arĩ ũ, ũkũruma Ngai? Nũũ ũngĩhota kũrekanĩra mehia, tiga Ngai we wiki?”
And the scribes and pharisees began to cavil, saying, Who is this that talketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God?
22 Nowe Jesũ nĩamenyaga ũrĩa meeciiragia na akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũreciiria maũndũ macio ngoro-inĩ cianyu nĩkĩ?
but Jesus knowing their thoughts, answered and said unto them, What are ye disputing in your hearts?
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mũhũthũ; nĩ kwĩra mũndũ, ‘Nĩwarekerwo mehia maku,’ kana nĩ kũmwĩra, ‘Ũkĩra wĩtware’?
Which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee, or to say, Rise up and walk?
24 No nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ arĩ na ũhoti gũkũ thĩ wa kũrekanĩra mehia-rĩ ….” Akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Ndakwĩra atĩrĩ, ũkĩra, oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku, ũinũke.”
but that ye may know, that the Son of man hath power even on earth to forgive sins, (He spake to the paralytic) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go to thine house.
25 O hau hau akĩrũgama mbere yao, akĩoya kĩbarĩ kĩrĩa akomeire, na akĩinũka mũciĩ akĩgoocaga Ngai.
And immediately he rose up before them, took up the bed on which he lay, and went away to his house, glorifying God.
26 Nao andũ othe nĩmagegire na magĩkumia Ngai. Makĩiyũrwo nĩ guoya, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ nĩtuonete maũndũ tũtarĩ tuona.”
And they were all amazed and glorified God, and were filled with awe, saying, we have seen wonderful things to-day.
27 Thuutha wa ũguo, Jesũ akiumagara na akĩona mũndũ warĩ mwĩtia wa mbeeca cia igooti wetagwo Lawi aikarĩte harĩa heetagĩrio mbeeca cia igooti. Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩra.”
After these things He went out and saw a publican named Levi, sitting at the custom-house, and said to him, Follow me:
28 Nake Lawi agĩũkĩra, agĩtiga indo ciake ciothe, akĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
and he left all, rose up, and followed Him.
29 Lawi agĩcooka akĩrugithĩria Jesũ iruga inene gwake mũciĩ, na gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa etia mbeeca cia igooti o na andũ angĩ nĩmarĩĩanagĩra nao.
And Levi made Him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great number of publicans, and others at table with them.
30 No Afarisai na arutani a watho arĩa maarĩ a gĩkundi kĩao magĩtetia arutwo ake makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrĩĩanagĩra na mũkanyuuanĩra na etia mbeeca cia igooti na andũ ehia nĩkĩ?”
And their scribes and pharisees murmured at his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
31 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa agima mĩĩrĩ tio mabataragio nĩ ndagĩtarĩ, no nĩ arĩa arũaru.
And Jesus answered and said unto them, They that are in health have no need of a physician, but they that are sick: I am not come to call the righteous,
32 Niĩ ndiokire gwĩta andũ arĩa athingu, no nĩ arĩa ehia, nĩguo merire.”
but sinners to repentance.
33 Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Arutwo a Johana nĩ meehingaga kũrĩa irio kaingĩ kaingĩ makahooya, o nao arutwo a Afarisai nĩmekaga o ũguo, no aku marĩĩaga na makanyua hĩndĩ ciothe.”
And they said unto Him, Why do the disciples of John frequently fast and pray, and likewise those of the pharisees; but thine eat and drink?
34 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “No mwĩre ageni a mũhikania mehinge kũrĩa rĩrĩa e hamwe nao?
And He said unto them, Can ye make those of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
35 No rĩrĩ, ihinda nĩrĩgakinya rĩrĩa mũhikania akeeherio kuuma kũrĩ o; matukũ-inĩ macio-rĩ, nĩ makeehinga kũrĩa irio.”
but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, then they will fast.
36 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩmahe ũhoro na ngerekano ĩno, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩtinia kĩraka kuuma harĩ nguo njerũ, agĩĩkĩre nguo ngũrũ. Angĩĩka ũguo, angĩkorwo atarũrĩte nguo njerũ, nakĩo kĩraka kĩu kĩa nguo ĩyo njerũ kĩage kwagĩrĩra nguo ĩyo ngũrũ.
Then He spake a parable to them, That no one putteth a piece of new cloth upon an old garment: otherwise, the new maketh a rent, and doth not match the old:
37 Ningĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩkagĩra ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ ngũrũ. Angĩka ũguo, ndibei ĩyo ya mũhihano no ĩtarũre mondo icio, ndibei ĩyo ĩitĩke, nacio mondo icio itarũkange.
nor doth any one put new wine in to old vessels; otherwise, the new wine will burst the casks, and be spilled, and the vessels will be destroyed:
38 Aca, ti ta ũguo, ndibei ya mũhihano no nginya ĩĩkĩrwo mondo-inĩ njerũ.
but new wine must be put into new vessels, and then both are saved.
39 O na gũtirĩ mũndũ thuutha wa kũnyua ndibei ngũrũ ũcookaga kwenda ndibei ĩyo ya mũhihano, nĩ ũndũ oigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ĩrĩa ngũrũ nĩyo njega.’”
And no one that has been drinking old wine, immediately desireth new; for he saith, the old is better.
